Phoenix Contact 1974986 Terminal Block Plug - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1974986 is an 8-position terminal block plug with female sockets, 0.197" (5.00mm) pitch, designed for 180° free-hanging in-line applications. This component features screwless push-in spring termination and is rated for 12A at 630V (IEC) or 10A at 300V (UL). The part is classified as obsolete, making identification of active equivalent models essential for procurement and design continuity.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The Phoenix Contact 1910584 qualifies as a direct substitute for the 1974986 based on the following critical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility: Identical current (12A IEC, 10A UL) and voltage ratings (630V IEC, 300V UL)
Mechanical Compatibility: Matching 8-position configuration, 0.197" (5.00mm) pitch, 180° wire entry orientation, and free-hanging in-line mounting
Termination Compatibility: Identical screwless push-in spring termination style
Material Compatibility: Same housing material (Polyamide/Nylon) and UL94 V-0 flammability rating
Wire Gauge Compatibility: Identical wire gauge range (12-26 AWG / 0.2-2.5mm²)

The primary distinction is product status: 1974986 is obsolete while 1910584 is active, and packaging differs (bulk for 1910584 versus unspecified for 1974986).
